Removing 'addaction' buttons.

[warezflogga 0]

Hello All,

Here's a toughy. In the Init line of a trigger you can say......

aP AddAction ["",".sqs"] to bring up a menu bar button named "" that will execute the .sqs file when activated.

My question is, can you set an init line (activated by a trigger) that will remove this button from the menu bar and by that, the accessability of the script?

Hi,

yes you can delete an action entry but you must know its ID number.

When adding the action write something like this:

actionID = unit AddAction["text", "script.sqs"]

To remove this action do this:

unit RemoveAction actionID

Hope this helps,

Spinor

Yes. If you add an action ID it's easy to remove the added action:

layBomb = player addAction["Lay Bomb","bomb.sqs"]

The action ID here is "layBomb". To remove the action, simply add this line:

player removeAction layBomb

Thank you both. This will make all the difference to my mission. If you want to see who is quicker on the trigger, I offer these questions.

On your marks.......

Q1: Is it possible to set a trigger so that only the player can activate it? And if so, how?

Q2: If i create a unit and set its condition as FALSE it will vanish from the game. Is there a dialog that can be typed somewhere that will set the unit as TRUE halfway through the mission? Thus making the unit appear when you wish.

As always, any clues would be appreciated.

A1.Yes, just group the trigger to the player using f2. Then new options appear in the triggers properties, allowing just the player to activate the trigger.

We'll i'll be stuffed. Never knew you could link them together.

My hat off to you.

Well,, you have the create unit comand. Use that

Could you possibly elaborate on the CREATE UNIT command?

I'm clearly inept in this department. If you can explain it in lamen, I'd be very grateful. Thanks for your replay all the same.
